About The View Point Inn

The View Point Inn is quite possibly the most charming, romantic and elegant place on earth. This 1924 Nationally Registered Oregon landmark boasts a rustic upscale charm with a dramatic panoramic view of the entire Columbia River Gorge. The historic boutique hotel and fine dining restaurant is nestled high on a bluff overlooking the majestic Columbia River with breathtaking sunsets and the sparkling evening lights of Portland and Vancouver.

Only 22 miles from downtown Portland, this fairy tale Tudor Arts and Craft style inn is perfect for any event any time of year. Located in the Columbia Gorge National Scenic Area, the inn offers a unique blend of mother nature, culture and civilization. Surrounded by forest, flowers and sunshine or raising a toast next to a roaring fireplace and everything in between, we can accommodate you and all your guests in style inside or out whatever the weather or season — Summer, Winter, Spring or Fall.

The View Point Inn is a graceful step back in time. The 30 x 60 Crown Point Dining Room still has the original (Timberline Lodge lighting designer) Fred Baker chandeliers and wall sconces. There is a huge Rumford designed fireplace to warm up and toast by in the cooler months. The Crown Point Dining room has five French doors which magically open west on to the Sunset Veranda. The glass enclosed 60 foot long veranda looks out to glorious sunsets over the Gorge. A long walkway, connecting the Sunset Veranda to the garden fountain, invites you to stroll to the expansive panoramic view point. This romantic setting lends itself to a simple gourmet dinner for two or a large scale banquet, private party or wedding.*

Special event options can be tailored to your heart’s desire. For example, our popular Roosevelt Suite is perfect for a private dinner party, honeymoon or weekend get-away. Stay overnight and enjoy your intimate soiree overlooking the Gorge, linger by the private upstairs fireplace after dinner, draw a hot bath in the claw tub and luxuriously soak into dreamland before retiring. Enjoy our complimentary continental breakfast or have our chef create a breakfast tailored to your sensibilities and taste buds. Your imagination, our event coordinator and executive chef can create the perfect size menu and celebration for an unforgettable experience.

Our fine dining restaurant serves lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. We are a reservation only property that seats up to 125 people. The Crown Point Dining Room books out quickly for dinner, Sunday brunch, private parties, banquets, and weddings. We have five distinct overnight lodging rooms and gift shop with items from the Northwest and all around the world.
